Prime numbers can only be divided by the number itself and one.
And remember: 1 is NOT a prime number.
Examples of primes: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, etc.

prime numbers are natural numbers that have exactly two (distinct) natural number divisors, which are 1 and the prime number itself:

In mathematics, a prime number (or a prime) is a natural number that has exactly two (distinct) natural number divisors, which are 1 and the prime number itself. There exists an infinitude of prime numbers, as demonstrated by Euclid in about 300 B.C.. The first 30 prime numbers are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37, 41, 43, 47, 53, 59, 61, 67, 71, 73, 79, 83, 89, 97, 101, 103, 107, 109, and 113

A prime number is any number that can only be divided by itself and the number 1:
2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23...
1 is NOT a prime number because the only number that can go in to it is 1.

1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37…
These are numbers that are only divisible by 1 and themselves…and they go on forever…
